• 4 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     TE = 4st Enduro & TC = 4st Cross

  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

TE511 upgrades

Just my NEW two cents,I have recently purchased my first Husky . A 2013 TE 511, three weeks ago, with 185 miles on it, I was convinced that I had purchased the most expensive boat anchor available! It had a terrible flat spot mid-throttle,stalled every time I chopped the throttle back,coming into corners, blipping the throttle to jump small logs etc., I had never been so frustrated with a motorcycles general performance. Then I happened across a blog where the mystery unraveled. It was called "race map II" The guy was talking about making a jumper for a plug that resides under the seat, I found the plug, made the jumper and race map II showed up on the dashboard. After that initial ride, I would have sworn someone put a different motor in my bike, simply unbelievable.Since then I have pressured my dealer to get me the factory "power up plug" that is made for it. Totally different machine, absolutely love it now.

more like the foam used to fill the gaps under sump guards etc. as pushing oil mist through a gauze can help get the oil to drop out of the air. you don't want it dropping out onto your air filter in your bike though as it will clog it up.

My air filter comment was just sarcasm but after thinking about what you wrote about oil mist I looked at the oil vent into my airbox and it makes me wonder how much really hot oil mist is getting sucked in my intake it may be negligible but I disconnected it plugged the hole in the airbox and put a small filter on the vent hose I'm going to keep a check on the vent filter and see if it gets any oil accumulation

Now send your ECU to ZipTy Racing and make it that much better. Map one was your frustration with the bike. Map II your like now were talking, Map 3 is :eek:

I have finally arrived in brazil to my te 477(known as511 everywhere else)I have covered only 60 miles or so thus far and have not experienced any of the oil spewing problems yet,actually I am really pleased with this bike,bearing in mind the last bike I raced was in 1979 and coincidently that was a husky too,cr 125,ah"......just a boy,
I hear a lot about a jumper,from race map 1 to race map 2,my display shows race map 1 ,and as other threads here I am having stalling and excessive popping when decelerating .
Can any one tell me,as the bike came with next to nothing,not even a month warranty,is the jumper simply a "link" ,ie open circuit,closed circuit.will a piece of wire bridged in the plug under the seat get me into race map 2
